Just started at this company almost 4 weeks ago, I contracted COVID at the end of my 2nd week and missed 4 days at the start of the 3rd week. I emailed my employer to let them know and they said something very strange that basically implied if I took medicine I could come into work without missing? Took the 5 days anyhow because I was too sick and didn’t want to spread
I recovered and came back 5 days after diagnosis. I get a note on my desk saying the pay for the time off will be deducted from the next paycheck, but like, I’m a salary employee? Can they legally do that? Genuinely not sure. This company does so many shady practices, it wouldn’t surprise me if it was illegal.
